Apple has a history of not allowing apps that compete with their core processes. No choice of internet browsers. No competing media players. No Skype. If Apple allows readers with competing stores I would be shocked. There's more of a chance that Apple may allow readers not connected to a store. But, IMO, just like in present day iTunes you will be required to load your books into iTunes and the books as long as there is no non-Apple DRM would be converted to ePub and then be available through the iBooks tab to load onto the iPad.
The only facts I have is that Apple is using their own DRM not Adobe's and Apple's history of disallowing competing apps.
Since you are a Sony owner, it would be prudent to wait and see what can be done with your current books.
